Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Camera rotation with mouse button does not always work

If I want to rotate the camera with one of the programmed mouse buttons when the cursor is on an object or loot, or on the invertory window, the rotation does not work. Keyboard button works in this case, but not mouse.

This annoying bug was not fixed with the hotfix.

I've noticed this a few times now with patch 8.

It will usually happen when I end a conversation with an NPC or exit out of a trading-screen. Not sure if this is location/character specific, but it seems quite common when I exit trading/conversation mode with Blurg at the Society of Brilliance.


So far, I was always able to "fix" this by switching to a different party-member. I'm almost 100 percent sure this is a patch 8 issue as I don't think I've ever seen this one in any of my runs before the patch.

Hotfix 31 did not fix this either.

This happens to me quite often (but not always) after coming out of a vendor's trading screen. Game switches back to normal view and none of my mouse-wheel inputs seem to be registering. Using the F-keys to switch to a different party-member will fix this.

Never seen this one before patch 8, so I'm going to assume it's a relatively new bug/glitch.


Whoops.. just realized I had already answered in this thread.. My bad.

What you write is not the same mistake. If I press the ALT key, for example to see the names of objects, and hover the cursor over the name or other UI element, the camera rotation does not work. Keyboard works. I tried it with two mice. If I move the cursor down or don't press ALT, it works. It always worked before. Larian seems unwilling to fix this. I was posted on another forum by someone who had the same error, posted a video of it.
